| Summary | Glider deployment to map the physics, optics and acoustics in the region adjacent to Palmer Station. The goal is measure the mixing, phytoplankton, and krill in a region of high foraging activity for penguins and whales. The Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) program in Antarctica is a long term study focused on understanding how the marine system regulates the ecology of the West Antarctic Peninsula. The project is focused on how the ecology is changing given the West Antarctic Peninsula is the fastest winter warming place on Earth. This dataset includes measurements of temperature, salinity, chlorophylla, optical backscatter, CDOM and krill concentrations |
